I think the better question is "is it useful"?

A good review is just meant to let you know where or not you'll be glad you watched it if you do. Rotten Tomatoes and Metacritic are meant to let you assess whether you identify more with those who liked it or those who don't.

I think Metacritic is a bit better, and it's clear that this movie isn't for everyone, but I will probably like it. I think Blue Beetle is a cool character, and this seems like a good vehicle for that character.
